Beloved sitcom Two Doors Down is returning to our screens this Christmas, with the full cast of the Scottish series to reunite for a brand new festive episode.
The series follows the lives of neighbours on Latimer Crescent, with a particular focus on the Baird and Whyte families, which are full of big personalities and (somewhat) friendly rivalries.
The series only grew in popularity over a seven-season run, with high audience demand seeing it leap from BBC Two to BBC One, but the future of Two Doors Down had been in doubt following a tragedy behind the scenes.
Co-creator Simon Carlyle unexpectedly passed away in August 2023, aged only 48, with co-star Doon Mackichan saying in December of that year that the sitcom would be "ending for now" in the wake of the enormous loss (via Instagram).
However, Carlyle's longtime writing partner and Two Doors Down co-creator Gregor Sharp is now confirmed to be bringing the sitcom back, with a new episode set to premiere this Christmas, ending what will have been a two-year break.
Sharp commented: "It's really exciting to be revisiting Latimer Crescent with all the regular cast for this new episode.
"Christmas is a time for getting together with friends and family and then becoming low level irritated by them so it feels like they're the perfect group to celebrate the season with."
Specific plot details are still to be confirmed, but we do know that the story will unfold at the home of Beth and Eric Baird, as played by Arabella Weir and Alex Norton.
In attendance for the yuletide celebrations will be Cathy (Mackichan), Christine (Elaine C Smith) Colin (Jonathan Watson), Alan (Graeme Stevely), Michelle (Joy McAvoy), Ian (Jamie Quinn) and his fiancé Gordon (Kieran Hodgson).
BBC Director of Comedy Jon Petrie adds: "There's something comforting about having the neighbours round for Christmas, even if they bring minor chaos.
"Gregor and the gang bring the warm laughs, sly digs and brilliantly petty moments that make Two Doors Down such a cracking comedy. Expect it to sparkle on BBC iPlayer and BBC One faster than Cathy can pop a prosecco."
